A lovely polished brown stone with minty green flecks, number 8 is one of my favorite turquoise. This is a drilled stone with a hand twisted wire bail. (silver colored copper wire).
“Carlin, Nevada is in Eureka County. There is a famous turquoise mine there called Number 8. It was found in 1925 and then mined finally 4 years later in 1929. The mine is no longer mined for turquoise, but it is mined for gold at present.” - stonesnsilver
